Dear Mr. Blairton: My name is Tony Lazo and I’m a grade nine student at Tiller Junior High School. I would like to request that our school store should be selling more nutritious food items. I have some suggestions that would benefit our school and also help gain profit for Tiller Junior High School and keep our standards to where they should be. Although having unhealthy food is quite valuable for many students, we should propose something that would benefit the school and the students. I recommend we start replacing unhealthy food like chips and soda pop with more nourishing food like yogurt or fruit juice. This would not only help having healthier food but also persuade students to eat healthy. Another way we can start the process of healthy food is through using the power of posters in which we can advertise about all the advantages of keeping a healthy yet effective food diet. If us grade nine students start eating healthier this would make us great role models for the younger students who would also want to eat food high in nutrients. By applying these methods the grade nine students will still be able to attend there adventure camp in spring every year and also exercise the benefits of eating much healthier.

Thank you for taking your time to read this and I hope you can consider my request. You will be able to contact me at tonylazo@gmail.com. Yours truly,

...﻿8 C's of a BusinessLetter
Clarity
The first element of all businessletters is that they should be clear. This includes the purpose of the letter and words used within the text. Clearly state your point near the beginning to allow the reader a clear understanding of the letter's purpose.
Conciseness
Avoid using extra words in a businessletter. The element of conciseness refers to stating an idea in the fewest words possible. Don't add superfluous information or extra words to fill space. Simply state the information that's important and pertinent, and leave it at that.
Consideration
A businessletter should also be considerate. This element is important because you must think about the reader and his feelings and point of view. Make the letter about him and not you.
Courtesy
Businessletters should show respect to the reader and should demonstrate the writer's personal respect for the reader and the company he works for.
Concreteness
Concreteness refers to using vivid wording within the letter that appeals to the reader's senses. If a businessletter is dull, the reader may skim through, missing important points.
Cheerfulness
When writing a businessletter, demonstrate a positive attitude that expresses joy and cheer....

...So that the business runs smoothly, can you please help and advise me how to write official letters easily?
Roger Woodham replies:
There a number of fairly standard conventions when framing a businessletter that it is important to observe.
Your business address
Your business address will normally be printed on your official stationery at the top of the page, perhaps with a logo. If not, insert it at the top, centrally or to the right: name of business, then street number and street, then town and district. There is no need to use commas after each of these categories and do not put your own name with the address.
Where should I put telephone and fax numbers and my email address?
There are two possibilities: either beneath your business address after a space or below at the bottom of the page.
Where should I put the date?
There are three possibilities: directly under your business address, telephone and fax numbers and email address after a space OR above the name and address of the person you are writing to OR beneath the name and address of the person you are writing to.
